Now I have the Vita for exclusives and emulation up to the PS1, and the Steam Deck for anything above that. Outside of an OLED screen and smaller formfactor is there any reason I should be considering another emulation handheld?
>>
>>12228270
only reason to choose a retroid over a deck is if you strongly prefer the form factor imo, especially since the deck can generally handle a bit more.

aspect ratio. you'll have two 16:9s when most retro games are 4:3 or less

PSP, hands down. It can play PSP games perfectly

Steam Deck is 16:10, which is decent as a compromise between 16:9 and 4:3, especially if it's OLED.
>>
>>12228545
For the price difference between an LCD and OLED 'eck, you could just get an entire 4:3 handheld

Deck has symmetrical sticks except it's on top. Never played the Wii U but it also had a set-up like that, but not the Switch/Xbox. As a Sony kid I feel at home with the Deck.
>>
>>12228545
I love 16:10 but a 6" in 16:9 still makes 4:3 handhelds redundant imo, 16:10 is still better but not necessary.

Neo Geo super pocket has been the single best retro game related purchase i have made in my entire 22 years of life

unlike 8bitdo controllers for 'emulation', this thing is pick up and play

and unlike emulation handhelds, this thing provides authentic Neo Geo experience with the beautiful black and gold colorway licensed by SNK

i already beat 4 Neo Geo games from mini play sessions before bed a week ago, that i would have never played under emulation settings since

1. a laptop or pc or mini console takes too long to turn on in comparison
2. for emulation handhelds there are just too many to pick from, scrolling up and down aimlessly and turning off games after 10 seconds to try another

this handheld supports evercade carts and there are Neo Geo volumes that will be highly desirable as collectables in near future

will you be picking this baby up?

The battery life is really good on retro games and lightweight stuff. I could play Stardew Valley for hours. And what you call a worse screen is just lower res, you don't need 4k for retro games.

MacBook Air would be perfect for retro games with its 16:10 screen but then you need a controller. I like to use a handheld when lying down or sitting waiting somewhere. Adding a controller to a laptop really requires a table.

Because Miyoo was paying Youtubers to shill their mediocre product back during a time when there weren't many options in the chinkheld market as compared to what we have today. It also frankly still doesn't have a lot of competition in the vertical small screen segment of the market to this day.

>>
>>12228493
>Why was this memed?
The Miyoo got big at a time during Covid where sites like Temu, Wish, and Tiktok Shop got big and started advertising in the west. Miyoo got pushed by a bunch of influencers (No idea if it was organic, probably not) which then led to it becoming an entry level emulation handheld for all the people stuck at home with money to burn and cheap enough they could justify it.

It's not worth it nowadays, basically anything from Anbernic is objectively better in both quality control and support if you want something cheap, and if you don't like Anbernic then Magic X is right there just with less CFW support.

Because you have a narrow amount of space between you and the laptop monitor, and you also have to be conscious of balancing the laptop on your lap. And if you're in an airplane during turbulence they make you put the laptop away but you're allowed to keep a tablet/handheld/phone out in your hands. A laptop can be good for emulation but not the way you're using it.

Once you get it, you'll notice you're never using the sticks and they're just getting in the way, so you'll get a stickless vertical.
Then you'll realize verticals suck and get a horizontal.
Then you'll decide that horizontal doesn't play enough systems to your liking so you'll get something stronger.
Then you'll learn all the claims about top end performance on that budget horizontal were bullshit and you need something even stronger.
Then, etc.

unless youre literally playing ape escape virtually every ps1 game controls perfectly fine with a dpad. n64 games definitely need an analog but again, I have a PC for that. Id much rather play a complex 3d game on a real screen with a controller than a handheld. the best games to play on handhelds, are, surprise, games that were designed for a handheld. but to each their own, I know some people prefer to play ALL games on their handheld and I get it, in that case Id want something like a deck, but thats not me.

And PS1 alone. N64 is virtually unplayable outside the most basic bitch shit, half of it already got hit with ports. No Jaguar or 3DO. Half the arcade boards with any complexity from that time struggle.

>Id much rather play a complex 3d game on a real screen with a controller than a handheld.
That's cope, pick up and play design was dominant well into 6th gen. Screen size concerns are valid though.

Thor and other dual screen devices don't make sense yet, the software isn't there. You also sacrifice a lot when it comes to ergonomics.
>>
>>12230967
>dual screen devices don't make sense yet, the software isn't there
It's got everything you need. Press the AYN button and you got the audio mixer and choose which displays you want on or off. Tap a display to start using its touchscreen. I don't really see how it can be improved (aside from the emulation which has nothing to do with AYN). Ergonomics suck but I like how retro it looks due to how square it is anyway. The Deck is for ergonomics. That's why they both compliment each other so well.
>>
>>12230967
This. At first I was so hyped for the Thor and then as the weeks went by, more was revealed and I did more research, I realized it wasn't going to be the dream device I imagined because there's so many hurdles to making an android device feel exactly like a DS.

It actually feels the Thor is perfect hardware wise, specially if you got the Max version. As for software, that can be fixed in any time. For example, MelonDS and ES-DE had zero dual screen support until a couple months ago.

You're asking the company whose name could be Tri-Mui (chinese company right?) or Trim-U-I to a first timer (who the fuck thinks the latter first) to come up with better names
>>
>>12231547
i don't really recommend the model s.
i have one and heavily optimized it (recompiled emulators with performance optimizations, better screen scaling options and stuff) and it's great, but it still struggles with special games like kirby superstar and dreamland 3 (sa1 chip), yoshi's island and star fox (super fx) and even some nes games (i noticed it can frameskip on the guardian legend with sram saving patch specifically).
dunno about the smart, i really should get one if only just to coomlect.

Looking to spend MAX $400, what should I buy? I was looking at the thor but heard rumors about the hinges cracking, that would have been one of my first choices, but I see odin 3 is out.

this is the cheapest i can find now. it was cheaper before.

>>12231695
if you don't care about it being a vertislops (or having only a mono speaker) the options go cheaper as you said.
i was trying to present a good horizontal option similar to what you mentioned.
for a good and very cheap option, look for the r45h. rk3326, 1024x768 screen (you can even use crt shaders with that resolution), stereo speakers, stacked shoulder buttons, built-in wifi and arkos preinstalled. its only counterpoint is that there is no cfw yet.
>>
>>12231712
I just thought that there could be a cheaper one and horizontal seems nicer.

>r45h
can only find r46h and that's 60 bucks.
very cheap in my eyes is 10 or 15.
also not planning to use the speakers.
>>
>>12231717
>very cheap in my eyes is 10 or 15.
That's right sarr.
>>
>>12231717
the r46h is the same as the r45h but with side by side shoulder buttons. the r45h is sometimes called r46h pro.
i can see listing of the r46h going as cheap as the r45h.
also, you are not gonna find anything for that little money. at most those crappy nes on a chip handheld.
i found pic related at 9 usd.
>>
>>12231726
a handheld that plays NES games shouldn't cost more.
if R36S plays up to PS1 for 25, its reasonable to think that something that only plays 8 or 16bit would cost less.
otherwise I'd just buy a controller for my phone which can play games way above that, or use my computer. it doesn't make sense to spend 60€ on a NES emulator.

>>12231739
thanks for the info. I guess r35s would be better.

RG35XX-SP and RG34XX-SP are two different devices, Autismo.
At least RG35XX-SP has two different version because one was updated to fix the hinge and the buttons, IRC.

Anyway, thank you for giving more context, now I understand you are screeching because of the software and not some new development about hinges or buttons.


Also, MuOS is better than OnionOS in my OWN PERSONAL taste, but both are just as mature and featured. The worst about OnionOS is no support for direct transfers through USB cable.

I guess a shittier processor, less RAM, no PortMaster, and no USB transfers make the Miyoo Mini so much better.

Good thing now you know which one you like more.
>>
>>12231891
Portmaster on sub 2gb ram devices suck. X55 is the bare minimum assuming you acutally get one with the full ram because powkiddy is powkiddy.
>>
>>12231894
Actually no.
About 80% of games are compatible with less than 2GB RAM, many get automatically optimized by PortMaster scripts (downscaling sprites or audio files, for example).

Also, RG34XX-SP has 2 GB of RAM, Autismo.
Which is why I asked WHICH ONE, but you seem to think "SP" is one device, and you did not know 34SP has 2GB of RAM.

Again, nothing of that matters because Miyoo Mini is just right for you, it is nice to know what you like and enjoy!

Have fun!

Try Tvout-tweaks and append it to your current shader and enable the color setting to 1. Nerfs color spectrum to original console color outputs. I might be retarded and it may only be good for emulating to actual crts but give it a try.
